What percentage of hospital beds are occupied by people there because of drinking, smoking, drugs, or venereal diseases?
Approximately 70% of all hospital beds are occupied by people who are there because of drinking, smoking, drugs, or venereal diseases, according to a statistic cited. Medical costs rise because people abuse their bodies with harmful things. This illustrates that many hospitalizations result from self-inflicted harm to the physical body.
Les explains that drug addicts, alcoholics, and smokers will destroy their physical health unless they break free. He recalls watching Good Morning America interview the president of the American Hospital Association about skyrocketing medical costs. The doctor said Americans only need to stop doing things that harm their body. He gave a statistic that roughly 70% or so of all hospital beds are occupied by people there because of drinking, smoking, drugs, or venereal diseases. Les concludes that hospital beds are filled with people who abused their physical body with things we now know are harmful, and that is what the Bible is telling us.
